As the host of beloved and groundbreaking TV series including “This Old House” and “Bob Vila’s Home Again,” he popularized and became synonymous with “do-it-yourself” home improvement. After much despair trying to scrape the wet excess product off off the gap / wood with a scraper, I found the best thing to do is to apply generously into the gap allowing it to protrude above the floor board level and then leave it for 1 hour or so to partially dry. After an hour take a sharp stanley knife blade and cut off the excess pushing the blade forward to cut the excess off rather than dragging it. You do not want to get the product smeared onto the floor boards at any cost because it will look terrible when it dries as it wont be the same colour as the wood. Some of the product shrank in the large gaps but i just went over these with some more filler and again cut off the excess. Once finished the floor was oiled using OSMO OIL.For hard to reach areas inside or outdoors, expanding foam is a flexible solution for sealing gaps around pipes and wires, while tough and long-lasting exterior sealants can be used on exterior pipework, roofing, guttering, glazing and frames. Always inspect the area where the insulation will be applied before installation. Older homes and homes with wooden shingles may be built with a design that allows the natural evaporation of excess moisture. Insulation installed in these areas acts as a sponge, soaking up the moisture instead of allowing it to dissipate. As moisture builds up, mold can grow and eventually rot out the wood. EVERBUILD® Weather Mate® is a multi-use elastic filler that can be applied in wet weather and to wet surfaces, even under water, remaining permanently flexible. Intended for external use only it can be overpainted with most paints and woodstains when cured. Adheres to most common surfaces. Expanding foam products will typically come prepared for use in a spray can or in separate components that need to be applied with a handheld gun. This fire-resistant expanding foam fills gaps greater than 1 inch in width, creating an airtight, water-resistant seal. It dries in 15 minutes; when it fully cures in 4 hours, it can be sanded, painted, or stained. The low expansion foam repels insects and other pests, protecting the home from infestations.

Fireproofing the home is very important, and some expanding foam products, designed to be highly fire-resistant, can be used for this purpose. The foam can seal holes between floors where wires and pipes run and can be used to seal gaps around wall outlet boxes to prevent loosening, while at the same time serving as a fire barrier should disaster strike. Carefully inspect older homes before installing insulation to ensure it won’t cause moisture accumulation, which can lead to mold and rot. Industrial sealants available at Rawlins Paints from manufacturers including Remmers and Sika, can provide:The waterproofing capacities of sealants, along with their restricting sound, light, heat, dust, and more from passing through joints in a structure or substrate, means they are used for stopping these elements getting into or getting out of sealed areas. For example, sealants used on pipework or industrial guttering would stop leaks. Seals on water tanks must keep the fluids in, and remove risk of contamination from exposure to other elements, toxins, chemicals, or heat from external sources.

Handheld guns take more knowledge and experience to use with precision but are the best option for large projects like insulating the attic. These products typically include two separated components in pressurized tanks. The handheld gun has two hoses and connects to both tanks. When the user is ready, the tank valves are opened, allowing the expanding foam to be sprayed through the nozzle of the gun. This type of application is usually only used with high-expansion foam.

The can comes premixed so there is no wait time before the expanding foam can be applied. These products may also come with a long, narrow dispenser that connects to the nozzle, allowing the foam to be injected into very small gaps with precise accuracy. However, only low-expansion foam comes in a spray-can format.
